Uniaxial compressive strengths tests were carried out in the field and in the low-temperature laboratory to investigate the mechanical properties of granular sea ice, with a strain rates ranging from 10−5 s−1 to 10−2 s−1. The test temperatures were set at −3 ℃, −5 ℃, −7 ℃, −10 ℃, and −15 ℃, respectively. The loading direction was parallel to the ice surface. The test results show that the uniaxial compressive strength of sea ice increases with the strain rate in the ductile zone, decreases with the increase of the strain rate in the brittle zone, and reaches its peak in the ductile-brittle transition zone. Comparing the ice temperature-peak strength curve with historical data, it is found that the peak of compressive strength of granular sea ice in Bohai is relatively low, and increases with the decrease of ice temperature, but its upward trend gradually slows down, which reflects the influence of sea ice crystal structure on ice mechanical properties. The sea ice porosity was introduced to establish the statistical relationship between sea ice uniaxial compressive strength and strain rate, as well as porosity, across a wide strain-rate range. The feasibility of a unified mathematical description for mechanical properties of Bohai Sea ice and polar sea ice was discussed.
